Had laminectomy at l5-s1 and now need it done to l4-l5 will you need a fusion?
Whether a fusion is needed after a laminectomy at L4-L5 depends on various factors, including the extent of the surgery, the stability of the spine, and the specific condition being treated. In some cases, a laminectomy can lead to spinal instability, especially if significant bone or tissue is removed. Your surgeon will evaluate your individual situation and may recommend fusion if they believe it will provide better long-term stability and support for your spine. It's important to discuss your specific case with your healthcare provider for tailored advice.
